Mr.. Theodore Schmitt sold Sat-
urday to Mr.. w. @. Craig a mixed
Durham and Devon COW and calf
for $3.50. The COW was dropped in
Mr.. Schmitt's yard and had fur.
nished his family in milk, butter,
etc., far more than what had been
spent for her feed, although always
we'll cared for. Mr.. Schmltt was
considerably more than $4,000
ahead, not to speak of the pleas
ure derived from her use. We are
satisfied that q good cow is one of
the best investments that can be
made.-Yazoo City Herald.
The Board of Mayor and Alder.
men held a special meeting yester.
day to consider the matter of i'm.
mediate repairs to the City Hos.
pital made necessary by the dam.
age done by Fridays cyclone. The
case being one of great urgency,
aud requiring immediate action,
the Board authorized its commit
tee on public property to have the
work done as speedily as possible
without going through the formal.
ity of advertising for sealed pro.
posals therefor. The action of the
board was wise and well taken.-

The morning paper is mistaken
abont Mr.. Gibson's representing
the defendant in the case of Mar.
shall VS.. the L. N. 0. & I. Railroad.
He was the Attorney for Marshall.
Marshall claims he was pushed off
the train by the conductor. The
conductor said that he found Mar
shall on the train and demanded
his fare, which Marshall did not
have, that he ordered him to get
off at the bridge when the train
stopped, but Marshall, against the
protest of the conductor insisted
on jumping off while the train was
in rapid motion where the embank-
ment was ten feet high. The jury
believes the conductor. Mr.. Glib
son says the jury not only convic.
ted his client of being a liar, but
Of being also q fool.-Evening

1t is not known whether Col.
Jones s. Hamilton will submit his
name as q candidate for State Sen.
ator, but if he should he will re.
ceive the hearty support of a host
of voters. Will he do it?
A CITIZEN OF JACKSON.
We copy the above from the
Clarion of the Goth. If Col. Ham.
ilton will consent to be candi-
date we believe we voice the al.
most unanimous sentiment of this
portion Of the country in saying
that he will receive the support
not only of "a host of voters" but
of all of them. He has served &C.
ceptably for the past term and was
one of the most active and pro
gressive of.our legislators
